In Vitro Use Guide
Sources: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20470445
LNCaP prostate tumor cells were cultured with 50 uM of tasquinimod for 24 h to test its effect on gene expression. At 10 uM tasquinimod the TSP1 mRNA expression was elevated at 6 h and peaked after 72 h. Moreover, after 72 h exposure the TSP1 mRNA levels was already elevated at a dose of 1 uM tasquinimod.
